Reviewers frequently praise the friendly staff, activities, and food at this community, with several families saying their loved ones thrived here. However, a notable number of reviews — spanning different points in time and apparently different ownership (Emeritus, Brookdale, now Discovery Village) — describe serious staffing shortages, slow call-button response, and at least one alarming incident involving a resident with Alzheimer's sent alone via rideshare to a medical appointment.

Ive lived here for over a year & service, etc. has gotten worse instead of better. It’s Not the issue of price but service’s. It’s Not the help but management! Can’t even get the last name of Peter? the manager? For Discovery Village, Bonita Springs, Florida. Since I’m 84 & pay a Premium I’d expect at the “very least”<br>Something Average! Unfortunately this has caused me terrible anxiety & stress!

I’m an independent musician, and I’ve had the joy of serving Discovery Village in Bonita Springs with my musical entertainment for the past three years. Their activities program is thoughtfully planned, varied, and clearly communicated. Keeping seniors minds active with engaging, social experiences is vital and the highly skilled staff at Discovery Village truly does a wonderful job caring for their residence.

Moved dad here in December of 2026. I looked at numerous facilities but was super impressed with Nyia the sales director the minute I met her. My dad started in level 1 care but had to switch to level 4…..very helpful with the move and the care has been wonderful. My dad also LOVES the food which is a plus!! The staff are all friendly and engaging and I am very happy with my decision. Highly recommend!! Dad has now been in three different assisted livings and no doubt this has been the best experience

Discovery Village has been a wonderful choice for our needs! It is well maintained, inside and out. Staff is friendly, supportive and endlessly devoted to the care and comfort of the residents! The food is good, with enough variety to satisfy everyone. Activities and outings align well for keeping the mind body and soul nourished! Location, and outdoor sitting /walking areas are also a bonus!
